Green Line Extension
The METRO Green Line Extension will connect Minnetonka to the metro area light rail system. It will add 14.5 miles to the existing METRO Green Line. The new segment adds a station to the Opus area with additional stations in Minneapolis, St. Louis Park, Hopkins and Eden Prairie. The project is managed by the Met Council.
Opus Area
Opus Area, located near Highways 169, 62 and Shady Oak Road, is a mixed-use community, experiencing revitalization sparked by the impending arrival of the Green Line Extension, which will run through the area and include a Opus Station.
Opus is currently home to more than 15,000 employees and 4,000 residents. New development will feature more than 1,000 new units of housing, over half of which will be affordable housing for individuals, families and seniors.
